Minutes before he robbed a Loop bank and exchanged gunfire with a guard earlier this month, Jawad Hakeem met a woman smoking a cigarette in an alley and struck up a conversation, according to the FBI.
He was a “sugar daddy,” he told her, and was running for president in 2024, according to a federal complaint. He gave her his phone number, saying it was a “special” one given him by T-Mobile. But Hakeem was not done leaving a trail for federal agents, according to the complaint. He left behind the gun and the gloves from the robbery when he skipped on his bill at a motel in Woodlawn.
